🎹 Lyrics That Hit The Spot

[Great_Scot]

What will you do?
Make a stone of your heart?
Will you set things right?
When you tear them apart?
Will you sleep at night?
With the plough and the stars alight?

What will you do?
With the wire and the gun?
That'll set things right
When it's said and done?
Will you sleep at night?
Is there so much love to hide?

"Let Him Roll"

He's a wino, tried and true.
Done about everything there is to do.
He worked on freighters, he worked in bars.
He worked on farms, 'n he worked on cars.

It was white port, that put that look in his eye
That grown men get when they need to cry
And he sat down on the curb to rest
And his head just fell down on his chest

He said "Every single day it gets
A little bit harder to handle and yet..."
And he lost the thread and his mind got cluttered
And the words just rolled off down in the gutter

Well he was elevator man in a cheap hotel
In exchange for the rent on a one room cell
He's old in years beyond his time
Thanks to the world, and the white Port wine

So he says "Son," he always called me son
He said, "Life for you has just begun"
And he told me a story that I heard before
How he fell in love with a Dallas whore

Well he could cut through the years to the very night
When it ended, in a whore house fight
And she turned his last proposal down
In favor of being a girl about town

Now it's been seventeen years right in line
And he ain't been straight none of the time
Too many days of fightin' the weather
And too many nights of not being together

So he died...

Well when they went through his personal affects
In among the stubs from the welfare checks
Was a crumblin' picture of a girl in a door
An address in Dallas, and nothin' more

The welfare people provided the priest
A couple from the mission down the street
Sang Amazing Grace, and no one cried
'Cept some woman in black, way off to the side

We all left and she was standing there
Black veil covering her silver hair
And 'ol One-Eyed John said her name was Alice
And she used to be a whore in Dallas

Let him roar, Lord let him roll

[barefootgirl69]

I'll be your dream, I'll be your wish, I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope, I'll be your love, be everything that you need
I love you more with every breath truly, madly, deeply do
I will be strong, I will be faithful 'cause I'm counting on...

 

[barefootgirl69]

I was just coastin', never really goin' anywhere
Caught up in a web
I was gettin' kind of used to stayin' there
And out of the blue
I fell for you
Now you're liftin' me up, 'stead of holdin' me down
Stealin' my heart, 'stead of stealin' my crown
Untangled all the strings 'round my wings that were tied
I didn't know him and I didn't know me
Cloud nine was always out of reach
Now I remember what it feels like to fly
You give me butterflies

 

[~Elizabeth~]

I guess everybody has somebody
That could have been that one and only once
In a lifetime love
Yeah, everybody has somebody
That's more than just a memory, it's a dream
You can't wake up from
A reason to keep reachin' back in time
You're mine​

 

[barefootgirl69]

My love, are you ready for my love, my love?
My love, my love is ready for you
If you're looking for a heart that's always true
Only to you, then my love
My love, my love is ready for you

 

[Great_Scot]

Sometimes it seems like I've been here before
When I hear opportunity kicking in my door
Call it synchronicity call it deja vu
I just put my faith in destiny - it's the way that I choose

 

[Mo_Bandy]

Well with pleasure or sending me pain
She shot some NyQuil but it didn't kick in
Don't be spiteful of our beauty and fame
I'm really, really, really, really, really glad you're plain
Somebody told me you're talking kind of strange
How you love to eat your lamb and you love your lazy days
How you died on Easter Sunday, eat chip on Christmas Day
I'm really, really, really glad you're plain

 

[Mo_Bandy]

It's easy to go, babe
It's just an easy yes or no, babe
It's just an easy way to throw away what we have
I don't need a letter
I don't need anybody better
I don't need anybody ever, I never have

 

[Mo_Bandy]

I was born in the middle
Maybe too late
Everything good had been made
So I just get loaded
And never leave my house
It's taken way too long to figure this out

 

[Chillygirl]

I'm gonna scream your name at the windshield
Tell the rain how stupid I feel
Unleash every tear on the wheel, crank the radio
Every old country song about letting go
Keeping my eyes on the road and off the rearview
My mind between the lines and nowhere near you
'Cause driving this car right back into your arms ain't what's gonna fix me
I just need a little backroad therapy

 

[Mo_Bandy]

If I die too young, let all that I've done
Be remembered
And I'll sleep easy like baby Jesus
In his manger
And I'll sleep easy like little Jesus
Safe from danger
Carry onward like some songbird
Beautiful stranger

 

[barefootgirl69]

I need you like water
Like breath, like rain
I need you like mercy
From Heaven's gate
There's a freedom in your arms
That carries me through
I need you
Ooh, yes I do

 

[UnquietDreams]

Who told you you were hard to love?
Who told you you weren't good enough?
Who broke your heart and made you believe
That you won't be anything without her?
Who stole all of your happiness?
Who almost pushed you off the edge?
Don't need their arms to make you complete
Don't take a genius to see that you are
Baby, you are more than enough
You're more than enough, than enough

 

[Chillygirl]

It's hard to have Sweet Dreams when I'm such a nightmare
I don't wanna talk about it rather not go there
When I find a good thing I burn it down slow
Only see your face now when my eyes are closed
It's so hard to have sweet dreams

 

[Chillygirl]

I wonder how it's going to be
When you don't know me
How's it going to be
When you're sure I'm not there

 

[barefootgirl69]

Even though
I don't tell you all the time
You had my heart a long, long time ago
In case you didn't know
You got all of me
I belong to you
Yeah, you're my everything
In case you didn't know
I'm crazy 'bout you

 

[Chillygirl]

I could just lie here, say it's okay
When I wanna rip all the doors off this place
Set it on fire, and just walk away
So I can feel anything else but this weight

 

[Chillygirl]

I know it takes your breath away
To think about options
Whenever we find our place to stay
If it ever happens
And maybe it was all the cheap flights you never took
Because we weren't together (together)
'Cause I love you well
But you love me better
Through snow and sleet
It sure gets so hard to see
I'd go alone
But I fold so easily
So what do you say?
Would you walk this world with me?

 

[Mo_Bandy]

Crawling back to you now
I sold my guitar to the girl next door
She asked me if I knew how
I told her I don't think so anymore

 

[UnquietDreams]

I know it's hard to understand what I've been going through
And I don't expect you to
No, I don't expect you to
But I've been making progress in moving past this

 

[UnquietDreams]

There will be days when you're falling down
There will be days when you're inside out
There will be days when you fall apart
Someone else will break you heart
They're never gonna hold you back
I'm always gonna have your back
So try to remember that

I hope you're happy
I hope you're good
I hope you get what you wish for
And you're well understood

And now I'm standing here and looking at you
I wonder what the hell you're gonna do
With those Dr. Pepper eyes and your bubble gum hair
Yeah, I'm standing right here
I remember how I held you so right
I remember that Saturday night, do you?

There will be days when you're falling down
There will be days when you're inside out
There will be days when you fall apart
Someone else will break you heart
They're never gonna hold you back
I'm always gonna have your back
So try to remember that

I hope you're happy
I hope you're good
I hope you get what you wish for
And you're well understood
And whatever your progress
I know you'll be fine
Because I hope you're happy
Even if you're not mine

I remember when the world was ours to take
I remember you next to me
I remember you with every breath I take
You'll always have a piece of me
I remember, yeah
Try to remember that

I remember every word that we spoke
You right here next to me
I remember how we tried and we tried
I remember everything
Try to remember that

That I hope you're happy
That I hope you're happy
I hope you're happy
I hope you're good
I hope you get what you wish for
And you're well understood
And whatever your progress
I know you'll be fine
Because I hope you're happy
Even if you're not mine
Try to remember that
I hope you're happy

 

[barefootgirl69]

My love is the evenin' breeze touchin' your skin
The gentle, sweet singin' of leaves in the wind
The whisper that calls after you in the night
And kisses your ear in the early moonlight
And you don't need to wonder, you're doing fine
My love, the pleasure's mine
Let me go crazy on you
Crazy on you
Let me go crazy, crazy on you, oh

 

[Mo_Bandy]

You mine for silver, and I pan for gold
You keep yours hidden, while all my are sold
You tell the truth, and I lie and I barter
And I drink and I cry, and I pass out at night

 

[Wag_that_tail86]

But I'd trade all of my tomorrows, for one single yesterday...
